6:01 am
probably with some saying the ultimate victim of the trade in the democracy. this is r.t. live from moscow with me allies have it now the democrats controlled u.s. senate has shot down a republican led debt ceiling plan just hours after it was passed in the house of representatives the plan going forward by house speaker john boehner would have raised the country's debt ceiling by nine hundred billion dollars along with a similar amount in spending cuts and as the shock takes it down to august second when the debt limit is reached there's less time to have unprecedented default crisis which might prompt the u.s. to lose its top notch credit rating senators democrat leader harry reid now won't says proposal will see a compromise which could keep the government afloat and according to economists
6:02 am
that marks a filed wolf this plan is more likely to get the green light. less than two business days away from the worst self-imposed crisis of america's standing in the world and america's credit rating and at least a century it's a fairly emergency situation and we're deep into the eleventh bordering on the twelfth hour the debt reduction plan that president obama has endorsed at least rhetorically that comes out of harry reid and the democratic majority in the u.s. senate does make massive cuts in spending more than two point five trillion dollars over ten years so more than two hundred fifty billion dollars a year does no increase in revenue at all which was one of the early if i think somewhat unwise demands of the republicans in these negotiations and therefore is possible is actually does more to reduce the deficit and the debt in the united states over the next ten years than the rival republican house plan the cut cap and balance plan and so it's possible that that could be pushed through none of these
6:03 am
plans make real efforts to reduce the long term problem of insufficient revenue and these plans do reduce spending in ways that will be painful and for many communities in the united states transformative but it's worthy of note and somehow hasn't much been mentioned that not a single plan out there reduces the national debt they just change the speed by which it grows a lot of politicians battling it out could be easy playing with emacs an economy hits a point rule general sense in the u.s. based trends janel says even if you can only one recognize a simple solution is to come up america defense. that country is going bankrupt just look at the numbers the numbers don't lie the politicians it looks look at the bigger picture first of all they devaluing the dollar and we've been saying it all along gold in the last month is gained one hundred fifteen dollars an ounce what they're not talking about in all this deficit reduction hey
6:04 am
how about the military budget how about slashing foreign aid fifty seven billion dollars a year how about companies like general electric that made fourteen billion dollars last year pay no taxes but there's plenty of room out there to start raining this thing in and turning it around but we do not have a representative form of government we have a government that represents only the very powerful and the very rich and that's all this is about letting them keeping their perks for economic and literacy is plunging america into crisis has not the kind. of the claims the reports have seen the world is adjusting the dollar will lose its status as a world reserve currency us debt will lose the aaa rating and it's a completely different configuration and washington is not the biggest player in this if they were being mad as shit by somebody who knew something about economics
6:05 am
not barack obama financially illiterate they would allow the dollar to collapse against other currencies let the economy go through two or three years of a gut wrenching depression and come out of it and rebuild but keep their sovereign santa act otherwise america will end up like greece losing their sovereignty america will end up like other countries in the eurozone like ireland that's lost its sovereignty to the i.m.f. or these other banking institutions i think most americans would prefer to be sovereign and free than to be a vassal state of international bankers. well the august second deadline for raising the debt ceiling in the u.s. is rapidly approaching the still no solution on the horizon l'oreal finessed aka the resident hit the streets of new york to find out whether americans feel a financial apocalypse is around the corner. with the looming debt crisis the u.s.
6:06 am
is watching the clock tick down to an economic armageddon what does that even mean that this week let's talk about that they keep setting dates over and over again and nothing happened just part of the negotiation process i think so it's idle threat. i believe so do you expect more from the people you like. neither party is going to let this actually happen where they would let it expire and then the united states would go into default i don't think that's going to happen i think that's a bluff but i think what actually is at hand is for real and they're they're using it as leverage to push their respective issues but i think americans if i'm speaking for myself as an american are sick of it or they don't represent the reports that they think that they were representing but i don't i think they keep on saying the american people want this america be with us but i don't think anybody really what they really want what do you want i would like compromise right now the drama right now is largely contrived there is a debt crisis but will make it through and you know we'll pay the bills and things
6:07 am
will be fine so all this drama i think is just making people crazy why are they doing that now i mean we raise the debt ceiling every year why is this drama unfolding right now well it's largely political because the upcoming election you know it's a good thing it's finally happening i think the people are speaking up. and hopefully will get our way but sometimes it takes a while to bad things really are i mean nobody has given any ground i've seen are you logged before for many many years and this is absolutely truly amazing and makes me wonder how they ever get anything done in israel or in italy or any place where they have multi parties i would go to parties to an airport if you include the two guys and we can't get anything done is utterly embarrass amish will be ashamed of themselves no matter what happens with the u.s. debt crisis the bottom line is we're. bound a lot more posturing from all the politicians involved.
6:08 am

6:11 am
country's say see economic divide the concept was to provide compulsory and free education for all children aged six to fourteen however as aussies discover the reform is facing tough challenges. it's dawn in india's capital city of new delhi an eight year old cushy just getting ready for school while there are nearly two hundred million elementary school children like cushy in india only half that number ever complete the eighth grade most end up leaving school to help their parents with domestic work or to get a job to bring in some extra money maybe but i haven't studied much that's why i want to educate my children after growing pressure to address the educational disparities in india the government passed an ox making it mandatory for all children between the ages of six and fourteen to get a free education it even requires a leap to private schools with tuitions nearing five hundred dollars per month to grant a quarter of their seats to students from disadvantaged backgrounds like cushy.
6:12 am
and. an young. today there are just as many schools where students have to pay a choice unlike this one as there are free schools that are funded by the government according to the act it's up to the parents to decide where they send their kids to school that means a student like her she can attend an elite private school if she enters that awareness the lottery and gets into the twenty five percent quota it also means that if government workers are able to identify and successfully enroll this is one that are attending not just schools like the ones pushing attendance now could get overcrowded but the idea of free schooling in india has its opponents with concerns even raised by proponents of the our free schools have no art and quality and i think. much smarter than that. and they want to quantity and quality is something
6:13 am
that the principal of cushy school knows has a different definition depending on the school while the teachers want to see their students succeed they believe that integrating indian children from a lower class into. the private school would not be practical was that a boy be easily at school to have a very high standard only juden whose parents are educated can study in schools like these schools want to maintain their high standards and reputation how can poor people send their children to schools like these because their parents are an educator even at home there is no one to tutor or supervise their studies or homework it's a position supported by the well off members of indian society the schools are not meant for them. it's meant for the high class people who. didn't get neglected in the sense that he comes from a background his parents are probably labeled as a whatever they're. putting him in that sort of fit into i mean so he would have trouble getting assimilated in spite of the mixed reception the integration model
6:14 am
received for children like cushy education is simply about accomplishing her dreams i want to study to twelfth grade ten become a teacher. but it's a dream that may just fall through the gap of india's socioeconomic divide i pretty sure either r.t. new delhi india. and israel thousands of young protesters pitched tent camps across the country is calling for social justice voicing discontent to government policies a mass rallies planned for saturday is ready genocide predicts israel is edging closer to revolution. two thirds of the poor in israel are working poor people who are working every day people who have a great jobs and still are not able to go above the poverty level so that's a reason that people are coming out of the street if you look at how the protesters started it's almost identical to how it started in egypt and internees and other
6:15 am
places started through facebook somebody who made a post on facebook through social media that's how people organize or was organized completely in the beginning by the young people in israel students people who feel that they have no future people who feel who can't afford living here and it and i was realizing that this is not the way to go forward and he's trying to figure out ways to deal with it because the government could definitely fall its role and these are ground and i think he is in danger especially that the process there is a growing while israel has been under building in tel aviv and haifa and all these major cities and israel is all have been overbuilding in the west bank focus of the israeli government at the moment is more sustaining the occupation and more sustaining the settlements rather than caring for the majority of the population who actually oppose that alliance and oppose occupation and israel proper so that the problem here though is a still many israelis have not been able to make that connection and the more and the sooner israelis make that connection realize that thirty patients affects their

if the pilot and the mechanic in the same berth and you know have the main plane rig would come in they phone from one to another the new regulations allow the so-called notification mode instead of asking for permission for takeoff from the authorities in theory the pilots can now use the internet for air traffic control of their plans but in reality it rarely works. as you can see there are many forbidden no restricted zones around mosco so it's impossible for us to use notification mode anywhere within a two hundred kilometer radius of the capital even with the new law dozens of government organisations issue all sorts of contradictory instructions for pilots it's a major disincentive for pilots to make the effort to take to the skies and that means that russia is missing out on the potential pot of gold will some countries like the u.s. get billions of dollars from small aircraft fees and taxes russia doesn't get a sound. of the current regulations are in chaos and in that mess we're losing
